A preview of this year's Trooping the Colour
On Saturday over 1,000 troops will take part in one of the world's most spectacular and colourful military ceremonies - the Queen's Birthday Parade of Trooping the Colour.
Tonight's programme shows the full dress and State uniforms worn by the Household Cavalry, the Guards and the Mounted Band, and many of the richly-embroidered trappings, saddle-cloths and instruments that play such a major part in this annual parade.
Plus a visit to Hyde Park Barracks where most of the 200 horses on parade are stabled, and to Chelsea Barracks to meet, among others, the Senior Drum Major, the Side Drummer who beats the famous Drummer's Call, and the RSM of the 2nd Battalion, Grenadier Guards, whose Colour is being trooped on Saturday, as well as the 21-year-old Ensign whose honour it is this year to carry that Colour. Introduced by Tom Fleming
Produced by IAN SMITH
(The ceremony can be seen live on BBC1 next Saturday)

'Amid lurid headlines about 6-year-olds hooked on horror, sex and violence a new term was born: video nasties. The Video Recordings Bill which seeks to outlaw these nasties has received all-party support in Parliament and will shortly become law. But now there are growing doubts about the measure.'
Open Space reports on the issue and opens it out for debate with an invited audience chaired by Mavis Nicholson.
